Chapter 153: Loser

The princess called out to Chunqiao and said, "You call your own soldiers to invite Lord Bai, the political envoy of Denglaib, to come over!" ”

Chunqiao went as promised.

After a while, Bai Youcai hurriedly entered the palace, and his yamen was next to the palace, but it was very close.

When Bai Youcai saw Shi Kefa, he drummed in his heart, feeling that something was wrong.

"Chen Bai has only seen Concubine Zhu!"

Bai Youcai bowed and said.

The princess hurriedly said: "Lord Bai doesn't have to be polite, this will call you over, because of the Ming crisis, the Ming army has to resist 100,000 Qing troops in Hangzhou, and there is a lack of weapons and food, I wonder if Lord Bai can support a batch?" ”

Bai Youcai thought to himself, sure enough, this Ming envoy was looking for the princess for support, and thought about it and said: "Back to the princess, I'm afraid that Weichen won't be able to be the master of this matter, so I have to nod my head from King Xing." ”

The princess thought to herself, Yang Xin is far away in the capital, this has to obtain his consent, send someone to pass the message, come and go, it will take three or four days to complete at the earliest, the military situation is like fire, the father and the emperor are facing the attack of the Qing army at any time, where to wait for this time?

"Lord Bai, isn't it possible for this palace to be the master?"

The princess was anxious and asked.

Bai Youcai was in a cold sweat, although he didn't want to offend the princess, but the princess would definitely not be able to be the master of this matter, so he said: "Back to the princess, you know, the food, salary and weapons all belong to the treasury, and they are the common property of the people. ”

Shi Kefa on the side looked very disappointed, the princess looked at it, and became even more anxious, as a princess of Daming, she married to Daxing as a princess, and she couldn't do it at all, so she said: "The treasury palace can't be adjusted, and the silver palace of the Xingwang Mansion has the right to allocate it, right?" ”

She can't take care of so much at this time, for the sake of her father, no matter how reluctant she is, she will have to hemorrhage, the silver of Xingwangfu is equivalent to Yang Xin's private property, and Yang Xin has long said that the princess can be at her disposal.

Bai Youcai's head was covered with cold sweat, and he said: "There is no problem with this, but the weapons and food that the princess needs have to be purchased at market price with the silver of Xingwangfu......

"You ......"

The princess was so angry that she vomited blood, this Bai Youcai meant that she didn't pull out a dime, and the money had to come out of her own pocket, but she couldn't be rash at this time, and said: "Okay, then you will transfer five million taels from the palace's silver to buy weapons and food from Daxing, and hand them over to Shi Ge Lao to take to Hangzhou." ”

Shi Kefa was overjoyed, you must know that in the past, Chongzhen raised the Guan Ning army, and it only cost more than eight million taels a year, and the princess casually allocated five million to herself, this financial resource is really amazing, and it will definitely play a vital role in the Ming army.

Bai Youcai was stunned for a moment, and said: "Princess, the total amount of funds in the palace is only about 10 million taels, and if you use up 5 million in one go, will it be difficult for King Xing to come back?" ”

The princess was furious, slapped the table, and said, "Explaining to King Xing is a matter of the palace, when will it be your turn to take care of it?" ”

Bai Youcai was in a cold sweat, he didn't expect the princess, who had always been weak, to start a fire so terrifying, and hurriedly said: "The subordinates don't dare, the subordinates are just thinking about the princess, since the princess has made up her mind, then the subordinates are all obedient, and please Ming Shi and the ministers to take a trip, and we will discuss the proportion and price of various materials to buy." ”

Shi Kefa was overjoyed and hurriedly went with Bai Youcai.

Chunqiao looked at everything in the house, thinking that it must be a great achievement to report this matter to Fan Yuxuan, but how to report the message is a problem, recalling that Fan Yuxuan seems to have a good relationship with Heizi, and he gave him silver last time, and he also accepted it, and after Bai Youcai left, he hurriedly went out and went to the front yard to find Heizi, a pro-soldier general.

Heizi was training in the army, and when he heard that Yang Xin's personal maid came to ask for a meeting, he felt a little strange, so he had to go over and have a look.

Kuroko saw Chunqiao in a pink skirt at the gate of the barracks, only to see her look nervous, walked up to Kuroko, and whispered: "General, the slave maid has something urgent to report to the king, can you send someone to send a letter to the king?" ”

Heizi was surprised and said: "If you have something, you can go directly to the princess, what is the reason for writing to King Xing?" ”

Chunqiao whispered: "The princess wants to use the silver of the palace to subsidize her mother's family, and it is five million taels for one use, and the general can only send a letter to inform King Xing of this matter!" ”

Heizi suddenly realized that he didn't want to get involved in Yang Xin's family affairs, but five million taels is not a small amount, and the princess used it to subsidize Daming, which is indeed not good for King Xing, not to mention that he received Fan Yuxuan's silver last time, and felt that Fan Yuxuan would definitely not agree to this matter, thought for a moment, nodded immediately, and said: "Okay, General Ben will send someone to the capital, you go back first!" ”

Heizi didn't dare to slack off, and immediately sent a herald to send the letter to the capital in an expedited manner of eight hundred miles.

In Daxing Qianzhuang, a young man dressed in white was comfortably sitting on an inverted chair with his eyes closed, and a sexy maid in yellow was massaging his head.

Beside him, there was the same inverted chair, and on her back lay a beautiful young woman, who was massaging her head by a charming maid dressed in white.

"Wang, it's still Kou Baimen's massage technique is comfortable, one word, cool!"

The young woman yelled comfortably.

The young man's eyes didn't open, and he said: "That's natural, she should have practiced in Qinhuaihe, concubine, this king is good to you, the best is given to you!" ”

The young woman chirped: "Cut, these two maids are all found by the palace, they are all from the palace, it should be said that you are enjoying the blessings of the palace!" ”

The two people who are enjoying this are naturally Yang Xin and Fan Yuxuan.

At this moment, a good-looking maid hurriedly walked over, walked up to the two, and said, "Master, Heizi 800 li urgently sent a letter to the king. ”

Fan Yuxuan was stunned for a moment, turned her head to Yang Xin and said, "Why is Heizi sending letters, isn't there a housekeeper at home?" ”

Yang Xin was enjoying it comfortably, and he didn't have time to take care of it, and said: "You can see it by looking at it, this king can rely on it." ”

Fan Yuxuan hurriedly opened the letter and looked at it, and immediately became angry, stood up, threw the letter to Yang Xin with one hand, and scolded: "Take a look for yourself!" Hmph, we worked hard to make money outside, she was good, she hid at home and didn't do anything, and she was a loser! ”

Yang Xin sat up, opened the letter and looked at it, immediately cried and laughed, and hurriedly supported Fan Yuxuan, and said: "Haha, it's not a big deal, extinguish the fire, don't be angry!" ”

"Not a big deal? That's five million taels, our Xingwang Mansion only has a total of 10 million taels of silver, and half of it was defeated by her at once, this palace doesn't care, this matter must not be just settled! ”

Fan Yuxuan was still angry, and her face was blue with anger.

"What then? The flowers are all spent, so I don't want to come back, so how do you let the princess face Daming? ”

Yang Xin said with a bitter face.

Fan Yuxuan knew that he doted on the princess and asked him to do too much to the princess, which was impossible, but during this time, he relied on Kou Baimen and Fan Siqi to coax him very happily, and gradually had the momentum to overpower the princess.

"This palace feels that she can't give her such a big financial power, and the funds of the future Xingwang Mansion must not be given to Daming in vain, and the transfer of more than 100,000 taels must be agreed by the two of us before it can be called!"

When Yang Xin heard it, he felt that it made sense, the princess did go too far this time, and used her own money to subsidize her mother's family, without saying anything to herself, and giving five million to Daming for nothing, which was also a bit too generous.

As far as the princess usually manages her finances, the right to call 100,000 taels is enough, that is, the opening of some new stores in Daxing Firm, increasing investment, personnel deployment, etc., does not cost too much money.

"Okay, Peach Blossom, pass on the king's order, inform Bai Youcai, Xu Sheng, without the king's order in the future, Concubine Zhu can't call more than 100,000 taels of silver from the Xingwang Mansion, but wait for two days to pass the order, wait for Shi Kefa to go later, don't let the princess lose face in front of the Ming envoy."

The peach blossoms were overjoyed and went away as promised.

Fan Yuxuan dissipated her anger at this time, lay down again, and then massaged, while saying: "You, you are too used to her, you will have no fear if you are favored, you are too spoiled by women, it is not a good thing, it will only become more and more unscrupulous!" ”

Yang Xin had mixed feelings in his heart, and at this moment, he was also a little confused, and he didn't know how to reply to her.

Here, Laiyang, the princess is not idle, these days have accompanied Shi Kefa to call materials, accompanied by him, the efficiency is naturally much higher, food, weapons and equipment arsenal are ready-made, but recently Daxing himself is also expanding the army, the temporary large-scale transfer of weapons has disrupted many of Daniel Zhang's plans, and some negotiations are indispensable.

Three days later, it was considered complete, and the princess personally accompanied Shi Kefa to Weihaiwei to find Xue Laosan to use the sailor to escort the Ming army.

The princess didn't expect that as soon as she came back from Weihaiwei, she received a message from Bai Youcai that King Xing had ordered Concubine Zhu not to mobilize more than 100,000 taels of palace funds.

The princess sat at the table in such a daze, crying silently, recalling the experience of marrying Daxing, she was really full of grievances from the beginning, first she was inexplicably inserted by Daqing A princess came in to be an equal to herself, and then she was deceived by Fan Yuxuan, and robbed herself of a man on the wedding night, and then, Fan Yuxuan took the lead step by step, and actually conceived Yang Xin's flesh and blood first, and coaxed Yang Xin around, and now there is a trend of being more favored than herself.

Thinking of this, even he was not very confident in Yang Xin, and he couldn't stop crying loudly.

I don't know how long I cried, but a handkerchief was handed over to me.

"Concubine Zhu, don't be too sad, you will feel distressed when you see King Xing like this......"

The princess turned her head to look over, and saw a gentle maid standing beside her, looking at her with a pair of pitying eyes.

The princess smiled bitterly, "Will he?" ”

Qiu Yu wanted to speak and stopped, but after thinking about it, he couldn't help but say, "Hey...... King Xing is naturally in love with the princess, but he has been bewitched too much recently, and Concubine Fan ...... Concubine Fan's methods are so powerful, you can't go on like this, I'm afraid that I won't have a foothold in the palace in the future. ”

The princess felt that she had something to say, and suddenly thought of something, she mobilized the funds of Xingwangfu without authorization, how could Yang Xin know so quickly?

It is unlikely that Bai Youcai and others sent someone to inform him, even if he wants to say it, he will wait until Yang Xin comes back to make a bright suggestion in the court, after all, he is the first minister of Daxing, it is impossible to do this kind of behavior of making a small report behind his back, not to mention that this is a family matter of Xingwangfu, and it is even more difficult to make a small report behind his back, it will only make Yang Xin suspicious, the minister colludes with the harem, and the king will be suspicious of the king in any court.

The princess is also a smart person in Bingxue, and when she thought about it, she thought of one person, that is Chunqiao, she was replaced by Fan Yuxuan on the last wedding night, and she has been bought by Fan Yuxuan.

Although the princess is kind, but after all, she was born in the palace, and the harem battle was seen since she was a child, and at this time, Chunqiao happened not to be in her concubine palace, Qiuyu happened to come to tell her about this, and she became more and more sure that there must be something wrong with Chunqiao.

So he calmed down, drank all the maidservants in the house, and then took out a thousand taels of silver tickets from the box and handed them to Qiu Yu.

Qiu Yu hurriedly waved her hands and said, "Concubine Zhu can't help it, the slave just can't stand it, so she can't help but remind her." ”

The princess hurriedly said: "Qiu Yu, you must know something, if you accept the silver ticket, you should do the palace a favor, you must tell the truth of the palace matter, in the future in the palace, the palace will be your confidant, Concubine Fan can give it, the palace can give it, and it will not be less than her!" ”

Qiu Yu hesitated for a moment, then accepted the silver ticket with anxiety, and said: "Concubine Zhu, the slave maid didn't say it for the silver, this Concubine Fan is really too ruthless, and the palace maids up and down the palace have all accepted her silver, this time this is the letter that Chunqiao ran to find the general Liu to send to the king!" ”

The princess suddenly realized that she had been fully monitored by Fan Yuxuan, but she didn't know that this princess was good enough.

Shocked in her heart, Daxing Chaotang has always been honest, she really didn't expect Fan Yuxuan to be so bold, she had never heard of this kind of thing when she was managing her subordinates in the capital before.

So he said: "This palace knows, you go back to the people to recruit a new group of palace maids for the palace, the palace maids sent by the king, not a single one will be left, settle the monthly salary for them, send them out of the palace, what else do you know, tell the palace!" ”

Qiu Yu nodded and promised, and said in a low voice: "Back to the princess, the last wedding night was that Chunqiao leaked the secret that the king asked Concubine Jin to help the princess wait for the king. ”

The princess was stunned when she heard this, and then she gritted her teeth in anger and scolded: "I see, it's so shameless, even the indiscriminate means of incense have been used!" ”

Qiu Yu hurriedly persuaded: "The princess is angry, the king didn't investigate this matter afterwards, let's not mention it again in the future, so as not to make it difficult for the king." ”

The princess nodded, her face full of exultation, and asked, "Is there anything else?" ”

Qiu Yu thought for a while and said: "Concubine Fan was afraid that she would not be able to be favored by the king because she was pregnant, and she also sent Peach Blossom to Qinhuai River in Nanjing to find a famous prostitute named Kou Baimen, and the two of them served the king to sleep together at night. ”

Speaking of this, Qiu Yu's face turned red.

The princess also blushed when she heard this, and said angrily: "Hmph, sure enough, men are lustful!" ”

Qiu Yu hurriedly said: "The princess has said this, the king is talented, the princess can't meet the king's needs at all, and she has to think of a way, otherwise the king can't be released, and it will naturally be easy to fall into Concubine Fan's trap." ”

The princess was full of frustration, and thought, if you want to say this, you can't blame Yang Xin for this, she fished for five days, and four days were drying nets, and the day of fishing could not satisfy Yang Xin, every time Yang Xin just rose, she couldn't bear to forgive, Yang Xin was the age of blood and energy, and he hadn't tasted meat before, how could he bear it after tasting it?

"Then how do you say this palace should deal with it, do you want to find a doctor to see, is there a way to recuperate the body of this palace?"

The princess is really out of line, this physique is innate, and she can't change it.

Qiu Yu smiled when she heard this, and said: "Princess, the king is tall, and the princess is so slender, this slave and maid are all born, I am afraid that the imperial doctor can't do it, the meaning of the slave and maid, it is better for the princess to learn from that concubine ......"

When the princess heard this, her face immediately turned red, and she hurriedly waved her hand, "How can this be done, isn't this encouraging the king to do absurd things!" ”

She has been trained in the palace since she was a child, and she wants to serve Yang Xin with another woman, and her heart is twisted indescribably.

Qiu Yu continued: "Princess, although this matter is not in accordance with the etiquette law, but the king is talented, and he can only be regarded as a matter of urgency, it is better than letting Concubine Fan let the king indulge in women's sex, the slave maid estimates that Concubine Fan will never stop at a Kou Baimen, and when the king gets tired of it, he will definitely look for others." ”

The princess frowned, waved her hand and said: "Okay, you send someone to find out first, is there any kind of woman who cultivates both inside and outside, don't want the kind of vixen who can only bewitch men, go back and wait for the palace to think about it, and then decide whether to adopt it." ”

Qiu Yu hurriedly agreed and left.

The princess frowned, this Fan Yuxuan is really unscrupulous to achieve her goals, if she is too pedantic, I am afraid that she will not even be able to keep her man.

Thinking of this, I secretly made up my mind and decided to compete with Fan Yuxuan, whether it was for Daming or for this family, we must fight.

The princess is not very sure whether Qiu Yu can find a suitable woman, this matter is very important, thinking of this, she took out Xin Ge and wrote a letter to Shi Kefa, the first assistant of the Ming Dynasty, asking him to help, which is naturally much better than Qiu Yu.

However, the content of this letter is not easy to write, after all, it is related to the privacy of his husband and wife, after thinking for a while, he can only write that he is alone in Xingwangfu, and the princess sent by the Qing Dynasty is insidious and cunning, and he is willing to ask Shi Kefa to find a talented and beautiful woman in Daming to come to Xingwang Palace to assist him in dealing with the princess of the Qing Dynasty.
